then after flashed cyanogen 5.0.4.1 with baked goods the phone can not load more than the system then I wanted to do a wipe and then a restore with the recovery of Amon_Re but the phone did not enter recovery more! I have left the x colored with the sign of the lock at the bottom ... how can I do?
sorry for my bad english
p.s. i can use fastboot and the bootloader is unlocked
Huh? If you can still boot into bootloader, it's probably not bricked.
I'm not sure I understand you, either. Did you flash the recovery or not? Do you mean that when you tried to navigate to recovery, the phone didn't? Idgi.

i flashed recovery...but today when i tried to do a wipe then phone didin't go in recovery
Have you turned off the phone, take out the battery and insert it again if you must, then hold the trackball down while pushing the start button on top of the phone?
If you get into a white menu press the start button again, wait for a while, then scroll down to "Recovery" with the volume down button, then press the start button. After a while the Amon_Ra Recovery console starts and you can do whatever you want.

as long as you can still get into bootloader, all is not lost.
you may need to start from afresh,
try a full wipe,
reflash the original images
boot.img
recovery.img
system.img
then you should be good to go,
Problably a bad download. Try downloading amonRa recovery again and fastboot flash recovery recovery you know the rest.If that doesn't work type adb reboot recovery.
Hi
Don't worry it is not bricked. Exact senario happened to me yesterday and this is what I did to correct the problem:
-I left the phone as it was (X+Padlock screen) till battery was discharged.
-Put it on charger
-Press "volume down+Power button" at the same time.
-That will take you to "Recovery" console.
-Restore
-Wipe
-Reflash
My N1 is working like new with the Desire Rom (MoDaCo).
...why do that (discharge battery completely etc) when you can just use an adb command to reboot into recovery?

Exactly. And if you were worried about some strange battery state, simply wipe the battery stats from recovery.
So orig poster, what ever came from this?
go into bootloader then type
fastboot boot recovery-RA-nexus-v1.6.2.img
If you can get into the bootloader that should work. if not then you somehow got a damanged recovery image so type after you redownload it.

Went to boot into recovery and the damn thing is stuck. I can move around up and down with the volume buttons but i cannot press enter with the power button. shutting it off only reboots the tablet and goes back into recovery. any ideas?

Can you get to the bootloader screen so you can use fastboot? If so try flashing the TWRP recovery, it's a great recovery.

I can press the power button and both volumes and it gets me to download mode... from there, every option i try just gets me back to recovery. when i press start, it sends me to recovery. when i press shut down and then turn it on - recovery. when i press restart bootloader, it still takes me to recovery afterwards. wtf happened here man? never seen this before.

If you can at least get to download/fastboot mode, either get the stock recovery.img file or extract the recovery.img file from a custom_recover.zip, such as CMW or TWRP and place it in the directory where you have the fastboot util on your Windows PC, plug in the device into your Windows PC. Then type the folowing in a Windows Command prompt(without the quotes): "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". Once that finishes then try rebooting back to recovery.
If you that doesn't work you may have a damaged bootloader, you can try extracting the bootloader(bootloader-manta-mantalj12.img) from the stock ROM and flashing it with the following command: "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-manta-mantalj12.img" then you can type: "fastboot reboot-bootloader" to reboot directly to the bootloader.

This happened to me yesterday.
Step 1 - hold down the power+volume up+volume down
Step 2 - plug up USB cable and use fastboot to flash the "touch" recovery version. Usebthe method as before, you might need to point your machine to the "naked driver" in dev section to get windows to see the fastboot device driver.
Step 3 - once you are in touch recovery you can just use the touchscreen instead of power button

You can just "adb reboot" from any computer with working adb and drivers.
This needs to not be flashed by default from Rom Manager until they get it taken care of. Twrp and cwm touch work just fine.

Seriously. Can we please sticky a thread or something that says CWM isn't stable on the nexus 10 yet. It would save a lot of people a lot of trouble.
I had the same issue get rid of crappy cwm and flash twrp, flash it by downloading the 1.3 nexus 10 rootkit selecting option 6 i believe with your n10 connected to your pc, it will fix your issue

I was able to fix it by re-flashing CW touch. thanks guys!
I can't seem to boot into recovery or bootloader.
I have unlocked the bootloader and rooted. I have purity rom installed, and have TWRP recovery installed.
I had this problem a few days ago but I was able to turn the phone off then hold both the up/down volume with the power button to get into bootloader, then from there I was able to choose recovery and get into TWRP. Mysteriously after I did that I could then enter recovery directly.
So now here are my symptoms. I cannot boot into recovery or bootloader directly through the ROM, or by using GOO.im.
If I power down and then use volume + power button, it powers up normally.
Also, even though I had trickster setup with custom settings and had it to "set on boot" those settings are all gone.
Last thing is that when I was able to get into bootloader last week I noticed the setting "secure boot - enable"
Any suggestions?
Update, I could have sworn I had installed ROM Manager, but it wasn't there. I installed it and used it to boot into recovery... Well it worked, now I'm able to get to recovery (TWRP). And I got back into the bootloader as well.
So I'm ok for now, but this is going to happen again I'm sure
your issue is that youre doing it wrong, its power button + volume DOWN to get into the bootloader.

what do you mean through the rom? do you have a terminal emulator installed? try this..
su(press enter)
reboot recovery(press enter)
if this works fine, then its your rom at fault. dont use rom manager, that app will eventually cause you more grief then its worth. if you long press the power button, then press reboot, does it give you an option to boot into recovery/bootloader? and what do you mean settings get wiped?

Ok, so by "through the rom" I mean long-pressing power and then using that option to either boot into bootloader or recovery.
by settings getting wiped, I mean settings for the kernel, like custom color settings, vibrate strength settings, etc.
I won't be able to properly test your theory with the terminal emulator because I fixed the problem for now. I can now enter recovery using the long-press power button option.
I have read that sometimes a recovery won't "stick" sometimes if the "secure boot" is set to enable (You can see this at the bottom in bootloader screen). Maybe I need to disable this?

if you flash recovery via fastboot, it always sticks(unless you use fastboot boot instead of fastboot flash, then itll just boot it once). if you flash it with an app/toolkit, then it might disappear and need to be flashed again.

I used adb to flash it originally, I will flash it again tonight through adb.
though when my problem occurs I don't think the recovery is gone, I think that for some reason it can't be reached by long-pressing the power button.
The first time this happened to me I was able to go into bootloader manually, then I went to recovery from there.. .then booted into system. After that I was able to boot into recovery from long-press power.
I am using moto x style and unlocked bootloader with 'Windroid Universal Android Toolkit' v2.5 but cannot flash TWRP and root this apl. Today I tried flash TWRP and then root but after showing 'Congratulation' pop up,my phone stucked on 'No command' page. I tried twice and same result. Later i check there is either no TWRP or root by SuperSU. And i see youtube video and and read many XDA forum and comments and most of the users says the phone stuck on M logo page when reboot after the root process. And all says its a issue with Marshmallow. And most of the xda posts and youtube video are made during 5.1.1 so there is no problem in that video during flash TWRP and root. So i need a seamless process to flash TWRP and root on Marshmallow so that it doesnot stuck on M logo. And I dont want to downgrade to L for root. And unluckily if it stuck M logo thwn what to do to go back to home screen?Thank you.

My build no is 24.49-18-4. So is this process suitable for this build no? And still i dont flash TWRP. I tried with "Windroid Universal Android Toolkit app" to flash TWRP. though it showed a 'Successful' pop up but it didn't. Can I go with any old process to flash TWRP or u have a new process?

Step 1 - Stop using toolkits! They rarely work right on modern Android devices. With the Moto the only safe, reliable way to root is manually.
I don't know what the 'old way' is to flash TWRP your referring to here... I recommend one time booting twrp with "fastboot boot twrp.img" command (replace twrp.img with your actual twrp image file) then perform a backup to the SD card or USB OTG device and put it away for safe keeping. Then flash twrp either with twrp you have booted, or manually with "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
The rooting method I linked before is valid for all Marshmallow builds, if you have Lollipop or Nougat you need to find a different method.

On your device, go into Settings -> About and find the Build Number and tap on it 7 times to enable developer settings. Press back and go into Developer Options and enable USB debugging. From your computer, open a command prompt and type:
adb reboot bootloader
You should now be in fastboot mode.
Download the correct image file and copy the file into the same folder as your adb and fastboot binaries. Rename the image to twrp.img and type:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.
I am saying about this official method which is on twrp.me site. And after typing 'fastboot reboot' what I have to do to go home page? Sorry to ask u so many things. Actually I am totally new in this thing and very much worry after facing issues 2-3 times. And thank u very much for fast reply.
One more ques, I have unlocked bootloader with that "Windroid Universal Android Toolkit". Now in fastboot it shows 'bootloader unlocked,code 3' is that ok? As u say toolkit doesnot work on modern devices.

So Moto is a tad different... After you flash recovery, do not reboot with fastboot, instead use the Vol Dn key select Recovery and press Power to start it. When the splash screen comes up, allow changes to system, then I the TWRP main menu select Reboot - Recovery, the device will start TWRP again and it should be "locked" in. From there perform the rooting.

That mean after typing fastboot flash recovery twrp.img press enter and then i can plug off the usb keeping my device on fastboot then changes to recovery and do the rest?
Btw suppose if i dont want to root it at that time,then what i do? I mean just after flash recovery how to go to home screen without rooting?
And when i want to perform root process later,after installing SuperSU zip if I press power button and vol down then may I go to twrp recovery or ph stock recovery?

You don't need to root if your going CM, flash TWRP, backup, and flash CM. You don't need to over complicate it.
If you boot (not flash) TWRP and backup then get a copy to safe place there is little risk of anything going wrong.

You pls tell me how to go to home screen after flashing TWRP?
And if I need to root it later then also what to do then? I mean if then I press power and vol minus then will I get TWRP recovery to root it or it will be redirectred to phone custom recovery?

There is always a chance of something going wrong, no one can guarantee everything will be fine. We have had people do everything perfectly but something happens and it's bricked... It's rare but does happen.
After you flash TWRP in the bootloader, press Vol Dn until it says Recovery and press power to start it, after several seconds you will get a screen that will ask if it can write to system, select yes, the next screen will be the TWRP home screen.
Once you flash TWRP, your stock recovery is gone, but you access it the same way... Power off, press and hold PWR+Vol Dn and in the bootloader menu select Recovery and press power.

Your last two are redundant, either flash or boot, you don't have to do both, but each has a purpose... Flash is permanent, boot is transient and will disappear on a reboot.
Boot TWRP first, the first time it will not take you to the main page initially but show you a notification page asking if you want allow it to make changes to the system or keep it read-only, this time only do not allow changes... Then the main screen of TWRP will be displayed and you should do a full backup of all partitions to the SD card.
Flash will just write the recovery partition, it doesn't start anything, you select recovery from the fastboot menu to start it.

So after "fastboot boot twrp.img" i have to allow to make changes and have to do a nandroid backup. After that will I get option to "Reboot?"
And later when I went to recovery I will get twrp page instead of stock recovery? 1st I think I should flash cm13 then root then upgrade to 14.1 bcz still a feel little worry to root it on stock rom.

No, almost every part of what your saying is wrong...
Boot twrp and do not allow changes first time and backup. This will give a clean backup to restore from if things go badly.
After this is complete, in TWRP go to Reboot menu and select Bootloader, flash TWRP, do not reboot but use the bootloader menu to start TWRP. This time allow it to make changes to system. At the main menu if twrp go to Reboot - Recovery the device will restart and TWRP will load automatically, this step will lock in twrp so the stock OS doesn't replace it.
You only need to root stock rom, you don't need to root CM roms as they are already rooted (there are a few roms that are not pre-rooted but they are rare and none of the ones your talking about). As far as CM 13 vs 14.1 I can't really help you but from I've read both are stable enough for a daily driver device.

I have unlock the bootloader so each time i boot up the phone, first there is a lg logo displaying for about 2 second and then a warning msg will appear on the screen. this warning message will display on the screen for about ten second and then a lg logo appear again then boot the android system. i don't know how to interrupt the normal boot process and get into recovery manual.
when i use adb to reboot to recovery, lg recovery will appear after the warning message screen off. i turnoff the phone and press power+down button together to try to get into recovery manually, but after the lg logo appear the second time, there is no way to start recovery. the phone will boot to android directly.
ok i find the way to get into twrp now by vidoe in youtube.

Also having this problem, however when I hold the POWER+VOLUME DOWN buttons to try to boot into recovery after shutdown/battery removal - the system STILL loads.
I get the warning saying the bootloader is unlocked though. After that the phone just starts up as normal, even though I'm holding the buttons

here is the step i find finally
1. re-boot into fastboot mode
2. flash twrp use fastboot command.
3. power-off the phone
4. power-on with power and volume down button holding
5. while lg log appears, release power button immediately for 1 second and then hold again
6. when recovery selection screen appears, select 'yes' both two times.
now phone boot to twrp recovery.
REMEMBER: WHEN YOU BOOT INTO LG'S SYSTEM AGAIN, YOU WILL LOST TWRP. IF U WANT TO USE TWRP AGAIN, U MUST RE-FLASH TWRP AND REPEAT THE STEPS ABOVE. THIS WILL LOST ALL DATA(PHONE WILL GET FACTORY RECOVERED)!!
I hope this can help you, good luck.

You need to delete the file recovery-from-boot.p in /system
Each time you boot, that file gets executed and restores the stock recovery from recoverybak. Alternatively, you can flash TWRP to both recovery and recoverybak.
